The RoC requires two replacement Carriers for their single Clemenceau class carrie in the mid-eighties to mid-nineties. The Carrier should be able to operate F/A-18 A/B/C/D as at this time all A-4 sky Hawks and F-8 Crusaders will be transitioned to the hornet.
I can kit bash, a design but respect the artists here as I ask if any of you could design a medium sized carrier with mostly US systems but much smaller than a full CV for our nation.
The RoC is a nation that consists of all islands north of Montserrat including the Bahamas and west to Belize and Panama.
The main opponent is a socialists Venezuela (Strongly Soviet Backed).
If you would be so kind to design such a vessel I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thank you.

how are these?
anyways, without an size requirement it is very hard to do so, and carriers take a lot of time and effort to draw (and the real design USN carriers aren't even all there yet)

I do have to question the logic for requiring a carrier if you have a monopoly on all those islands, you can cover pretty much the Caribbean in its entirety. Unless you're thinking of air ops into the interior of Venezuela?

I agree with Blackbuck, you can buy an awful lot of planes and concrete to fly them from for the cost of a carrier.
“Close” only counts with horseshoes, hand grenades, and tactical nuclear weapons.

The RoC would like a carrier to enable it to have a mobile airfield to that can allow rapid turn around on strikes to support reclaiming islands lost to communist aggression form the south. As such a strike fighter would be the preferred aircraft for said vessel.
